Fisheating Creek

[clwpaddler]

Attempted to paddle Fisheating Creek from SR 731 to the campground just before you get to the SR 27 bridge. After 4 miles of water lettuce blowups, downded trees and encroaching Devils weed, we turned around :cry: and paddled back to the put in. Until a good high water event occurs, it is best to launch at the down stream park and paddle as far as you wish up stream.

Woody,
Were are you located?

Kinda odd to hear someone posting on Fisheating Creek?

Woody, I recon it was better to find the "short" water sooner than having to drag and pull further down the creek...
Good try though!

It is nice to see a post about Fisheating creek .. Always have wanted to paddle it. Look at it every time going down to the glades for some snook fishing and have sworn that I will paddle it one of theses days. Fisheating creek sure looks like some good fresh water fishing.

Hmm.... :idea:

Sounds like a road trip when we get more water.

I have thought about that campground at 27 up from and across from the cypress knee museum and the creek a lot. Besides there is a good restaurant just back up the road at Sebring , have to stop there on every trip down to the Glades to refuel myself and take a break. Unless I go on down to Clewston and hit the family restaurant that the two sisters have.

I knew I should have had something for lunch today .. Here I am thinking about food but after what the dentist did today......... I will hold off till supper.

Fishing Fisheating

While I was pickin my way down river I had time to toss a fly here and ther and each time was rewarded with a fat bream. I think a trip up stream from the old Lykes Bros. park would be a good way to introduce the fishies to the buggies!!! :twisted:
